Pneumatic Conveying

VMAC is the next generation vacuum dense-phase conveying from Mac Process. Other vacuum dense-phase products use static air settings or pre-set timers to control the feed point, which leaves the system vulnerable to minor changes in product or flow. VMAC specially designed modulating air controls...

The Dense Flow System differs from many of its competitors with the absence of air boosters along the pipeline. The system is able to achieve equal or greater results in many instances without the use of boosters. Some of the advantages to not having boosters are lower air consumption, lower...

Using pneumatic conveying, this reactor feed system allows the charging of a vessel in an inert atmosphere and in a clean and contained manner. Ideal for pharmaceutical, chemical, and food processes, the system can charge directly into vessels under pressure or vacuum in a closed, contained system...

This skid-mounted bulk bag discharging system with positive pressure pneumatic conveying system transfers material from bulk bags to silos and other bulk storage facilities on islands or other locations unable to receive large volumes of bulk material by rail or truck. A cantilevered I-beam with...

ECO phase is a design that improves the way material and air interact in the initial starting point of a pneumatic conveying system. This patent-pending process provides the efficiency, velocity, and transfer rates of a dense-phase system, yet can provide material on a continuous basis like a...

Volkmann offers a conveying system optimizing material flow from the supply side to the downstream packaging operation. When used with a level-controlled buffer hopper, Multijector vacuum conveyors can transfer from as little as 10 lb/hr to 6 tn/hr, over distances up to 200 ft, all in dust-free,...

Significant research has been conducted in regards to understanding the gas flows and pressures required to pneumatically convey materials. However the true power requirements to operate a pneumatic conveying system are less well defined. In this article, you will discover the results of a large-...

Vacuum and pressure dense-phase systems are best suited for conveying materials when degradation and segregation are unacceptable. They use low-volume, high-pressure air to convey at low velocity, ensuring minimal powder damage. Gas booster points can be used along the conveying line to control...

Kansas City, KS-based Magnum Systems Inc., the parent of Smoot Co., was issued US Patent #8,337,122 for the “Continuous Semi-Dense Pneumatic Conveying and Method”.
Smoot Co. intends to market this patented technology under the term “ECOPhase”. This form of conveying...
